Eternal “Infect”

I generally try to refrain from references other card games in my Eternal content but this deck is just so explosive, it’s hard for two specific decks from Magic: the Gathering to NOT come to mind. Those decks are Infect and Death’s Shadow. Google those lists up if you’re not familiar with them. The deck we have here today is straight from the mind of my friend, Calimdir! He’s been working on this archetype across multiple patches and boy oh boy did the Fall of Argenport bring some new toys — and before you ask, YES, this deck HAS to be Four Faction.

The idea here it to combine any of your units with a myriad of pump spells and more or less one shot your opponent. You don’t always kill them from 25 but almost every time that you do kill them they’re not going to see it coming. The list runs 27 power + 3 Seek Power because if you miss a power in the early game, you’re likely D-E-D. Gift of Battle on Rilgon’s Disciple might be my favorite way to win. Rampage and (surprisingly) Kaleb’s Intervention are two of the most important pump spells in your deck. Having that Overwhelm is oh so important for getting through blockers. That’s also why we have 2 Vara’s Intervention which we mainly use for Unblockable. Occasionally you’ll perma-kill a Dawnwalker or Initiate of the Sands or even buy back a dead Rilgon’s Disciple with the card. Don’t be afraid of trading off Yeti Sage early to stay alive. Trail Stories is often a very useful tool in this deck for obvious reasons.

All in all, this is a very explosive deck if not a little inconsistent at times. I hope you all have a blast with this list. Au Revoir!
